Trinity DebateJesus as the embodied pre-existent SonI don't see how my last paragraph denies scripture, it's more of a question. Do you believe that Jesus Christ loved us? What does "through him all things were made", imply? This definitely refers to the Creation. How unique is Jesus as a human if He created all things even Adam. Maybe the "We" in Genesis is literal. Jesus first empties Himself of His former preexistent glory, then He came in human likeness and appearance. The order of events is very important in Phillipians 2:7. In fact, the preceding verse states "he was in the form of God", this was stated before Jesus emptied Himself and came in human likeness, implying preexistence. Revelation 2:8 "To the angel of the church in Smyrna, 8 write this: " 'The first and the last, who once died but came to life, says this: The first and last who once died but came back to life...this is Jesus Christ, with no doubt. The Father and Son are the Alpha and Omega. I knew there was a verse like this, I had to dig deeper to find it. If Jesus were only a man, would it be just for Jesus to let people worship Him, and allow Thomas to call Him "My Lord and my God", or let people believe He was God? I don't think any of the prophets would have allowed their followers to harbour beliefs like that. |
